Considering the current state of our world, living isolated from the rest of civilization in the woods has never looked more appealing.

“When no one believes in you- Believe in yourself” - Bigfoot

[TheDocV]

so glad you included the Sierra Sounds because i feel like that is a perfect example of something we dont know about in the woods

[Nilzipan]

Considering the fact that there were a number of different human like species living together at one point, it's really not beyond the realms of possibility that there is a species still hiding in remote wildernesses across the world.

[michaelhowell]

I've actually been watching a number of your older cryptids videos over last few days. I have to say this is so much better than a bunch of ghosts, spooks and hauntings.

[abhaychowdhery]

Siera sounds is probably the best evidence there is. First the hunters imitate the howls then the bigfoots try to imitate the human voice. Still gives me goosebumps like the first time I heard it.

My family lives in Mckee Kentucky. Danial Boone forest and trails. I was 13 or 14 riding our dirt bikes on a trail that leads to old coal mines. My cousin and I smelled the nastiest odor. I can still remember the odor. My cousin stopped immediately and whispered to turn around . ive never seen his that scared. I followed him. He road as fast as fast as he could. He almost lost me a few times. When we were almost out of the trail we heard a deep growl then chatter. My cousin pulled his pistol out of his bag and kept riding. When we got back to his house he ran inside and told his mom. My aunt cussed and cursed us. She was so mad that we went down that trail. She threatened to call my dad and make me go home. She said were lucky we're alive. She whooped my cousin and cried. She called her bother. Our uncle and he came over. He started to cuss us abd told us if we ever go back into those woods we wont come out. When the dogs smelled out tires on the dirt bikes they yelped and ran. These were hunting dogs that had no fear . my uncles friend went in those same trails as a school boy and was never found. He was mushroom hunting. They found his bags, gun and old dirt bike a few years later. Outside the old coal mine entrance. Since then they blew up the entrances to those mines. No one talks about it. No one will talk about what's in those woods. I believe its one of these creatures. The smell was like rotting food and urine. If that makes sense? I will never forget that smell or growl and chatter that day. I didn't see what it was but I smelled and heard something. Everyone was so mad and upset that day. Why would they be so angry and scared if nothing is in those mountains? I never went into the hills without our guns and dirt bikes again. Ive never smelled that stench again. I will never forget how scared and mad everyone was for us that day. My dad found out and kept me away for years. ID beg to go down on summer vacation.

YES!! Bigfoot is the reason why I started believing in the impossible. I had my experience in the mid 90s when I was about 8 or so in the Blue Ridge mountains of Georgia. My dad and I went camping on one of his friend’s property. It was sprawling Forrest except for a small plot where my dad’s friend built a cabin. So we met up with with him, and went deeper into his property to find a place to set up our campsite. We eventually got to this little creek and set everything up. We had set up our fire and were roasting hotdogs and s’mores, but the whole time we were eating we kept hearing loud wood knocks. I don’t remember any of us being afraid of them, but they were definitely suspicious. Later that night when we were sleeping I woke up to a loud splash in the creek, so I awoke my dad. He just laughed and said, “It was probably a fish.”. I accepted the explanation until I heard two more massive consecutive splashes. I didn’t have to wake him up that time. He decided to grab his pistol and check things out. When he got outside the tent his friend was already looking around. After a check of the site we went back to our tents for the night. The night was uneventful, but the next morning there were massive footprints in our campsite. Even being that young I could tell by the way my dad was acting that this wasn’t normal. Now that we were all thoroughly freaked out we started breaking down camp and heading back to the cabin. While we were walking there came the loudest guttural howl I’ve ever experienced. It was so loud that I could feel it in my body. It’s like I was paralyzed. After what seemed like forever, but was probably only a couple seconds, my dad grabbed my arm and we hauled ass out of there.At that point in my life I had heard of Bigfoot, but I was always told it’s a hoax for fools to believe. I left that day dumbfounded by what I’d experienced. I’ve always tried to find a logical answer for things, and for years I tried listening to different animal noises indigenous to the southeast, but nothing ever fit, until I stumbled across a show where they a group of Bigfoot hunters were call blasting, playing alleged Bigfoot recordings through powerful speakers into the wilderness, in Texas. As soon as I heard that noise I started shaking and got chills throughout my body. Even now writing this some 20 years later I still feel that primal fear thinking about it. After doing some research I learned that some known animals use infrasound to stun their prey. I guess I wonder if it considered us food, or if we were just in its territory. If you want to hear what I heard the closest thing is the Ohio howls recorded in 2015

I sort of believe in "Bigfoot". I say "sort of", because I've never personally encountered one, despite spending a lot of time camping in the woods in the PNW over the years. I do find some of the photographic and recorded evidence intriguing; others not so much (I should note that I've got 30-odd years experience in SFX makeup, so such things sort of leap out at me in the numerous hoaxes out there). But mostly I believe my grandfather, who was a truck driver in Northern California. A large chunk of his career was as a logging truck driver, where he spent a lot of time going up and down bulldozed trails to deep woods logging camps picking up loads of harvested wood. He encountered Bigfoot, twice. Both times from the cab of his truck, more or less "in passing", while driving on these dirt roads.

You would have to have known my grandfather to understand - he was not a person prone to spinning tall tales; in fact he was pretty much the epitome of stoic, to say nothing of reticent. Getting any sort of story out of him was like pulling teeth, and I think I only received a single written letter from him in my entire life (I was in the military at the time, so hadn't seen him in a couple years, which was why he felt compelled to write - his wife, my grandmother, probably hounded him into doing it, too). There is no way in hell he would lie about these encounters. It's always possible he mis-identified a bear or something... but again, very very unlikely. He grew up in those woods, and was pretty intimately familiar with the wildlife there.

I can fairly easily envision a species of intelligent primate, probably low in population and limited in range, existing "alongside" us. It would not be out of the question; we still don't have anything close to a full catalogue of creatures who live on land (to say nothing of the seas!), and humans tend to congregate close to water - there are vast regions of Earth that still remain relatively unexplored except in the most superficial of ways. So yeah... Bigfoot *could* exist. And I think probably does.

[nonyabiz]

I do remember a story back in the 80s about how big foot bodies were discovered during the Mt. St. Helens cleanup operations. I thought it was a load of BS at the time but thinking back about it that eruption was so devastating that a lot of wildlife perished.

[surma]

FINALLY A BIGFOOT VIDEO, your videos are TOP tier brother🔥🔥🔥

[MikeV]

The “Bigfoot on security camera” was someone in a suit. His movement once he started walking was the dead give away…

[LeviG]

Finally a bigfoot-episode. Can't wait to watch this one! <3 <3

[mrwilson]

Number 8 is definitely the best video yet and can't be denied, that's scary how big it looks, I wouldn't like to bump into it

[dsouthmonster]

I experienced Bigfoot in Northern Virginia back in December or November of 2013 and from my experience I can 100% say it has power unimaginable to human beings borderline supernatural. I used to work for Guitar Center and lived in the basement of a townhouse that had a woodland trail backyard where I would enter from that was pivotal in this story. So one night I'm coming home from work it's like 11PM I had just gotten Wendy's as I was walking down and reached the trail the most powerful musk of wet hair, mold, body odor, and pure stank then a massive *THUD* in the ground. I stopped dead in my tracks in the darkness as it slammed the ground I couldn't see anything but the fence and light from our townhouses to the left but I knew it was either to the immediate front right or to the side of me because I could feel and hear it breaking trees it felt like I was around something I wasn't supposed to see or the wrong place. I said "I don't mean you any harm I just wanna go eat." and it stopped slamming at that point I just kinda fuddled inside putting everything down getting my composure as I looked out the window never saw anything except for the next day. Next day I come out to go back to work and there's trees knocked over to this day I wish I would've gone out there to investigate either during or after it sounds crazy to say during but I truly believe it understands intention and is only defensive by nature and/or past treatment by the other percentage of us who would fight one instead of want to understand it

My husband and I saw one crossing the road on a rural road in N.Ga. . We were coming home late from a race track hauling our racecar. It was large, had long reddish brown hair, a conned head and extremely long arms. There was a split second glimpse of a blurred group ? and then this one directly in front of us in the headlights . My first reaction was " That looked like an orangutan !"" It was a bigfoot. I contacted the game warden, the police, and anyone else that could tell me if there could possibly be an orangutan escaped from somewhere. No there wasn't. This was not too far from the dashcam police video that was released. We are both middle aged, do not drink, Christian people. They are real

[The_Nonchalant_Shallot]

24:35 that's not bigfoot. That's not even someone in a bigfoot suit. That's someone wearing black boots and a white snowsuit that appears to be looking for something they lost in the snow while trespassing. I say trespasser because if it was the owner of the camera then they'd have no reason to upload it, but I am absolutely sure that's human.

[GuitarLessonsBobbyCrispy]

The walking pattern of the Patterson Gimlin Bigfoot is proof that it is real. The biomechanics of its gait is way way off compared to a human. When people walk, the leg swings forward, kicks and the knee locks, while the back shin rises 52 degrees. When the Patterson Bigfoot walks, it lifts its back leg 73 degrees, thrusts its knee up and forward, and steps downward ( like a stomp ) without locking its knee. Just like how you can't take the pistons and a crankshaft of a Honda Civic and stick them into a Ford pick-up truck and expect it to run. You can't just stick a person into a big, bulky ape costume and expect them to walk this unusual ( and impossible ) way for full minute.

Thank you to everyone involved in the making of this new upload.

I once saw a video of Josh Gates trudging through some very thick woods at night. He was asked if he believed something could be living in the area and remain unseen? He responded that there could be a Super Walmart over the ridge and he'd never know it.lol.
